In the Interpreting in Our Local Schools program, I as a heritage and bilingual Spanish speaker served as a paid interpreter at local elementary schools during parent/guardian-teacher conferences. By drawing upon my language expertise to meet the needs of elementary students and their families, I gained experience in using my academic and language-brokering skills in a broader social environment that includes community members, teachers, and school administrators. For parents and guardians who do not speak English, this interpreter service is crucial.
